I think we are hitting one here. We are storing the files in CVS as
iso-8859-1, which means that people downloading this files into
computers that use different encodings (say utf-8, or jis, ...) will
have them badly unencoded. When somebody stores the japanese files using
jis, ... I will not be able to download them, except by clever tricks
like using emacs to convert encodings and save.
java assumes that local files are in a given local encoding (you can see
it in the properties, in jetspeed admin screen). This, AFAIK, can not be
changed. My encoding is
file.encoding=ISO-8859-1
The only safe way to store characters > 127 is to store them as \uXXXX.
I wonder if there is some program to clean them automatically. Even in
this case, we will loose completely legibility. Bad for messages :(
